Just completed the final episode and straight away to review section. I watched the series in 2021, some might say I'm late to watch this series but I will say it's never late to witness such a marvellous show. 8 seasons, each season 22 episodes ( except the final season that has 16 episodes), each episode around 45 mins was full of drama, love , romance, action, friendship and all other things that you need in a show. Initially while watching 1st season you might think it's just a random love story and will be same thing in upcoming season, but believe me the more deeper u will go , the more thriller u will witness. Usually I don't watch too much English shows, but this series is epic and touched my heart. Elena, Stefan ,Demon this trio never disappoints you by their acting throughout the series. Also other characters have played their role in the best possible way to keep you engaged. And I can't forget the last episode, the episode no 171, the emotional scene when Stefan met Elena for the last time to say goodbye after sacrificing himself for the earth, was heartbreaking. I wouldn't say much about the series, just if you want to get engaged in a series that will make you glued your eyes over screen and will make u think what's happening next, the excitement, the curiousity, never Miss this show!!.I still feel sad that this series ended!!. Thank you to the unknown person who recommended me this show!! Vampire diaries is Love ❤️
